About this study

Official title: A Feasibility, Double Blind, Randomized, Crossover Study to Evaluate the Tolerability of Oph1 0.5% Cyclosporine Ophthalmic Formulation Compared to Restasis in Healthy Volunteers

20 healthy participants will be evaluated for tolerability and safety of a new eye drop formulation for treatment of Dry Eye Syndromes, Oph1 0.5% Cyclosporine A (CsA) compared with Restasis 0.05% CsA ophthalmic formulation.

Read the detailed description

20 healthy participants will be enrolled to the study and randomized into two groups of 10 participants each. In one group participants will be treated with Oph1 0.5% CsA ophthalmic formulation and in the other group with Restasis 0.05% CsA ophthalmic formulation. Both groups will be treated with the eye drops in the right eye only, twice a day (6-9 hours apart), for four days and once on the fifth day (total of 9 eye drops treatment for each), both groups will have 2 days of washout, and will be crossed to identical course of treatment with the other ophthalmic formulation. All eye drops treatments will be done on the medical site by one of the study staff unblinded to the treatment. The Investigator assessing the ocular signs and the participants will be blinded to study treatment.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Drop Discomfort VAS score

    Eye Discomfort VAS scale from 0-100

    Measured: up to Fifth day per treatment (last dose for each treatment)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Drop Comfort VAS score

    Eye Discomfort VAS scale from 0-100

    Measured: 1-minute post-Dose. Fifth day per treatment (last dose for each treatment)

  2. Drop Discomfort Detailed VAS score. Calculated mean of all scores per treatment for each of the VAS scale.

    Eye Discomfort, Itching, Burning, Foreign body feel VAS scales from 0-100

    Measured: 1 minutes post-Dose instillation, Day 1-5, Day 8-12, AM

  3. Drop Discomfort Detailed VAS score. Calculated mean of all scores per treatment for each of the VAS scale.

    Eye Discomfort, Itching, Burning, Foreign body feel VAS scales from 0-100

    Measured: 5 minutes post-Dose instillation, Day 1-5, Day 8-12, AM

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Oph1 and Restasis in people with Dry Eye Syndromes, run by OphRx Ltd. at 1 site in Israel.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Apr 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Drop Discomfort VAS score (time frame: up to Fifth day per treatment (last dose for each treatment)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Apr 2024.
